This study investigates the relationship of self-differentiation with individualism and collectivism among college students. Special focus was on whether distinctions between vertical and horizontal individualism and collectivism were more useful in examining the relationship with self-differentiation. The results reveal that different aspects of individualism and collectivism were differently related to self-differentiation, indicating that self-differentiation was negatively associated with all aspects of collectivism and with vertical individualism, but positively with horizontal individualism. This study proved that four distinct constructs were more useful in explaining the effects on self-differentiation. The implications of the findings are discussed for clinicians and future research.

본 연구는 침묵의 나선 이론의 핵심 구성요소인 소외에 대한 두려움과 공개 발언 의지가 문화적 가치에 따라 어떠한 영향을 받는지를 분석한 글이다. 그동안의 문화 간 침묵의 나선 이론 검증은 대부분 '개인주의-집단주의' 성향의 차이가 침묵의 나선 현상의 차이를 초래했다는 결론으로 이어졌다. 본 연구는 침묵의 나선 이론에 대한 문화적 가치의 영향을 살펴보기 위해 '개인주의-집단주의' 뿐만 아니라 '불확실성의 회피' 성향도 중요 변수로 검증하였다. 이를 위해 인도와 한국, 미국, 스페인 등 4개국에서 온라인 설문을 진행한 뒤 얻은 780명의 응답을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 개인주의는 소외에 대한 두려움을 낮추고, 집단주의 및 불확실성 회피성향은 소외에 대한 두려움을 높이는 것으로 조사됐다. 또 개인주의와 불확실성 회피성향은 공개발언 의지를 강화시키는 것으로, 소외에 대한 두려움은 공개발언 의지를 약화시키는 것으로 나타났다. 소외에 대한 두려움은 개인주의와 집단주의의 공개발언 의지에 대한 영향력을 매개하는 것으로 확인됐다.

본 연구의 목표는 한중의 기업가적 지향성을 비교하고 개인주의가 한중의 기업가지향성의 형성에 미치는 영향을 비교하는 것이다. 연구목표 달성을 위해 본 연구는 크게 두 가지 분석을 실시한다. 첫 번째 영역에서는 F검정과 t검정을 통해 한국과 중국의 대학생들의 기업가적 지향성을 비교하였고, 두 번째 영역에서는 양국 대학생들의 기업가적 지향성에 영향을 미치는 문화적 변수에 대해서 비교하는 연구를 수행한다. 본 연구에서는 다른 여러 문화적 변수들 중에 개인주의에 집중하였다. 개인의 기업가적 지향성을 종속변수로 놓고 문화적 변수인 개인주의를 독립변수로 하여 개인주의가 양국 대학생들의 기업가적 지향성에 미치는 영향에 대해 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 이러한 두 가지 분석을 실시하기에 앞서 양국 대학생들을 대상으로 설문 조사를 실시하였는데 질문은 개인의 기업가적 지향성을 측정하기 위한 질문과 개인의 기업가적 성향에 영향을 주는 문화적 요인을 측정하는 질문으로 나누어져 있다. 개인의 기업가적 지향성을 측정하기 위하여 내재적 통제력(Locus of Control)과 혁신성(Innovativeness)을 묻는 세부 질문을 만들었고, 문화적 요인을 측정하기 위해서는 개인주의(Individualism)의 정도를 묻는 질문을 만들어 설문을 실시하였다. 한국과 중국의 잠재적 기업가정신을 비교한 기존의 연구들의 결론과 마찬가지로, 기업가적 지향성은 중국의 대학생들이 한국의 대학생들에 비해 높은 수치를 보여주었다. 그러나 문화적 요인에 있어서는 기존의 연구와는 다르게 오직 중국 대학생들의 기업가적 지향성만이 개인주의에 의해 영향을 받았다. 한국의 대학생들의 어떤 종속변수도 개인주의 변수에 의해 영향을 받지 않았다.
